    Hello mate.

    WE have to wait for more players. The game could start soon, so keep watching it.

    Some things you should learn:
    You will be voted in round 1. This is a welcome we, the veteran mafia players, do. Don't worry, you won't be lynched.
    The rules. Seriously.
    Do not make suspiction of yourself.
    Have fun, and dont get angry if the mafia use you for their victory. After all, they are the bad people of the movie!




    Names, secret names
    But never in my favour
    But when all is said and done
    It's you I love

    Hi Axel

    This Thread gives a good explanation of what mafia is all about. It also includes a dictionary of common terms used in mafia as well as links to some of the older large games.

    Here is a game that was recently played with a similar number of players to this one. It should give you a basic idea of what mafia is like. If you go to the end of the thread you will find links to the various behind the scenes discussions. (note: Andres game looks like it is a little less complicated)
    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    I hope its less complicated...

    I probably would've damaged my own brain cells if I'd played my game instead of hosting it.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Ah thank you!

    The Throne Room is a little slow right now as we wait for the KotR successor to start. Figured I'd find something else to spend my free-time on. :D

    Just please make sure you don't leave the cookies in the microwave for too long. They get too hard and crunchy... :P

    The game is played in this thread. We are just waiting for Andres to start it.

    The only thing that might help you is reading old games, which are all in this forum.

    These games are fun. I've only played two so far, but I've enjoyed them both immensely.

    Yeah, seeing you, GH, and NN in this one definitely added to the appeal.

    Right now I'm trying to read the whole Netherworld thread so I at least have some idea of what I am doing.

    Step 1: Cast suspicion
    Step 2: Avoid suspicion
    Step 3: Kill the other side
    Step 4: Avoid getting killed

    Lather, rinse, repeat, until you're among the last men standing on the winning side. That's about it, I think.

    --edit to add --:
    There's nothing to download. There are no graphics. It's a text-based, story-telling, role playing game. Andres (the host) will send you your role by PM. You won't know the other players' roles. Your job will be:

    1. Guess the other players' roles
    2. Figure out who is your "friend" and who is your "enemy".
    3. Help your friends, and kill your enemies. Don't get killed yourself.

    *can't see mod anywhere*

    *not sure if he heard anything at all because he never actually sees who is talking*

    *figures he is just thinking about this way too hard and continues to eat a cookie*

    Day Zero

    ...Please don't panic and go to sleep now."

    Pino di Luca watched the group of villagers leaving the theatre.

    When the theatre was empty, he cursed. "Don't panic! Hah! What else could I tell them? If only they knew..."

    With a bad feeling, he went to what's left of the Carabinieri building...

    ***

    SIGN UPS ARE CLOSED !

    Role pm's going out soon.

    The game will start with a NIGHT PHASE, which will last for approximately 24 hours (might be a bit longer, might be late back home tomorrow).

    First post has been updated, so please read carefully (especially the part about quoting/dead players/pm's).


    Townie pm is publicly available, to avoid circumvention of the rules:

    When all mafioso and other bad guys are lynched or killed, you win the game.

    Good luck

    The phrase "sign-up phase" in the title is quite confusing.
